Silence.
A complete silence.
Aside from the sounds of the wind and the flow of the Saint Yuan in the world, this place felt as if it were utterly deserted.
"Father, Lord Palace Master, look, doesn't it seem like Senior Wudao has succeeded in his cultivation?"
Xu Zhijie asked somewhat foolishly, and then he saw Xu Xiong and Palace Master Guangcheng staring wide-eyed, looking more shocked than Xu Zhijie himself.
What... what... Both of them were completely stunned, almost going mad. What did they just see?
Senior Wudao had truly cultivated the Moon God Body, and both of them felt their worldview collapse in an instant.
"What, is something wrong?"
Qin Chen smiled slightly.
At this moment, everyone was jolted awake, but Xu Xiong still had his mouth wide open enough to fit a watermelon, rubbing his eyes repeatedly, occasionally slapping his head to check if he was dreaming.
Xu Zhijie, however, began to laugh. He could see the truth of the matter from his father's reaction and excitedly said, "Senior Wudao, I knew you could do it!"
Qin Chen nodded and smiled at Palace Master Guangcheng, saying, "Thanks to Palace Master for your support, this old man's efforts were indeed not in vain."
"This... how is this possible?"
Palace Master Guangcheng was in a daze, constantly muttering to herself. Behind her, Xu Xiong looked at Qin Chen as if he were a monster, constantly wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.
The Moon God Body, which no one had ever succeeded in cultivating for countless years, had actually been successfully cultivated by a man.
Palace Master Guangcheng smiled bitterly, "Brother Wudao, you truly are a person of destiny!"
With envy in her eyes, she shook her head and made a gesture of respect. This was a divine body that even she had not succeeded in cultivating.
Qin Chen smiled and said, "Palace Master, actually, cultivating the Moon God Body is quite simple."
"Quite simple?"
Palace Master Guangcheng's expression became even more bitter. She had entered the Moon God Pool for inheritance three times and still hadn't succeeded in cultivating it. How could it be simple?
"Master... actually, it is really quite simple, because it seems that I have also succeeded in my cultivation."
At that moment, Fairy Guangcheng cautiously spoke from the side.
Before Palace Master Guangcheng could respond, Fairy Guangcheng's body emitted a dazzling moonlight. It seemed as if her body had merged into the void; clearly, she had just broken through to the Saint Master realm not long ago, but in Xu Xiong's perception, Fairy Guangcheng seemed to have disappeared without a trace.
His seasoned Saint Master's spiritual sense surprisingly could not perceive someone who had just broken through to the Saint Master realm a couple of days ago. It was truly eerie.
Palace Master Guangcheng's eyes widened as well, for in her perception, Fairy Guangcheng's aura began to grow ethereal, slowly vanishing from her senses, becoming faint and indistinct.
"Another Moon God Body."
Palace Master Guangcheng was almost driven mad by what she was witnessing. After being in a state of disarray for a long while, she finally asked, "How did you manage to cultivate it?"
"Master, actually at first, I could only absorb the power of the Moon God. It was Senior Wudao who informed me that this Moon God Body is said to have been left behind by our Guangcheng Palace's Moon Goddess Saint Master, and the Cold Moon Silk is the treasure of our Moon Goddess Saint Master. I wondered if it could be used to draw the power from the Moon God Pool. After a trial, I activated the formation, and for some unknown reason, I underwent purification."
Fairy Guangcheng explained.
So simple?
Just by activating the Cold Moon Silk, one could trigger the formation in the Moon God Pool?
No, that’s not right.
Palace Master Guangcheng shook her head. The Cold Moon Silk was her treasure. Although she had never specifically tested it, she had used it before, and it had not caused the situation Fairy Guangcheng described. There must be another reason behind this.
